Vintage Halloween
Love, love, LOVE this picture!
Vintage Halloween Fun
Unique Vintage’s Halloween Collection is absolutely adorable on every level…and totally my speed, as 50s fabulousness is concerned. ❤

The bat and web sweaters might be my favorite but when Hallows is involved, it’s awfully hard to choose…
V Day
I don’t do Valentine’s Day. I think the only time I sent Valentines out was when I was in lower school (so that’s third grade and below), frankly under duress. There was candy involved, though, so I would generally get what remained – nice incentive at that age!
I just don’t think anyone should feel obligated to do something nice, let alone nice AND sappy, just because the calendar says so – therein lies my distaste for what it’s become.
Funnily enough, though, a Facebook memory popped up of this (incredibly rare form!) photo. It was taken many moons ago, rather in defiance of the 14th, and very much with a mocking tone.
I do have a lot of friends in pin-up and vintage automotive photography so it was equally a (positive, in this case, however) nod to them.
I guess we all have skeletons, right? With red heart-shaped glasses and red lipstick, in my case!
My Kind Of Beauty
Cobwebs
All I can say is, I’d be running around in this gown (at home, of course) if I could get my paws on it! ❤
Given the description, I’m not entirely sure whether it is an illustration or a real piece (trust me, I’ve inquired!) *lol* It’s effectively more body jewelry then it is a “dress” but my Pagan heart is in full swoon wither way.
I mean, golden cobwebs?! How incredibly vampilicious. I feel like it’s nigh impossible to outdo Morticia or Lily but this is teetering on the verge of spotlight-stealing. Personally, I’m totally head over broomstick.
Winter – 2016 MAC Retro Matte
MAC lines up the launches like nobody’s business! In January, (11th) 2016, the company will be launching Retro Matte Lipcolors. Having been exposed to the Hot Rod arena for some years, I have a TON of friends this reminds me of – the scene is saturated with gorgeous pinup gals, and dapper dandies. The Retro Matte Collection definitely has that vintage flavor (the ad image with pea green playing cards and oversized sunglass frames help!)

The colors look bright in the photo, and it does indicated “saturated,” so I’m curious to see swatches. Loving the nude, peachy tones!
